Dr S M - GP Offer “Just wanted to thank you for the e-medica question bank! The SJT section and YouTube videos on this I found particularly helpful. I got 621 with a rank of 46.”
Dr L M - GP Offer “I am happy to let you know that I just got an offer for GP training in NI, MSRA 494, Rank 5781. I accepted with upgrades. What is interesting is that I only had 2 weeks to prepare as I had no information about MSRA exam previously. I bought the 1-month Emedica material, completed all the questions in 2 weeks. Alhamdulilah. It was worth it. Your material is epic. I would recommend to anyone.”
Dr M H - GP Offer “My score was 528, Rank was 3582. Emedica was a major part of my preparation. I found the questions similar to the exams and explanations just about the right length without being too lengthy. I got my first choice of Airedale and I accepted it. So, I’m very happy and thanks to you.”
Dr A R - GP Offer "The SJT was very realistic and helped me achieve my long life ambition of getting into ACCS on my first attempt."
Dr R N - ACCS Offer "The question format for clinical questions was the closest to the MSRA questions than other question banks"
Dr C S - Anaesthetics Offer"The course was presented in a simple format and laid out the ins and outs of the exam well. It was very useful for me given I had never given an exam like SJT before. The practice questions and going through their explanations together helped not only get familiar with the pattern of Qs but also an idea of what to look for while solving such Qs."
Dr S Z - GP Offer"Good questions and explanations. The crammer course was very well delivered and put together and really gave me a boost in getting my preparation in order. The key was in not underestimating the exam."
Dr D Y - Psychiatry Offer"Loved the mocks and revised them 2-3 times (including mini mocks). I think the 2 day crammer course was golden very concise and relevant. The YouTube one-hour videos again were fabulous."
Dr J K B - Radiology, GP, Psychiatry, O&B Offers"Platform is very similar to the one used for the MSRA so I felt confident navigating my way through the exam."
Dr A C - GP Offer"I ended up scoring 600 on the MSRA, I secured my top choice GP training number at Imperial in London, and also my top choice CST job in an orthopaedics themed rotations in central London. I found the course extremely useful, the questions were similar to the real exam and the webinars were invaluable. Thank you for all your help getting there!"
"During my preparation for SRA Exam, Emedica was an invaluable resource.
The question bank was fantastic for preparing questions and assessing progress along with the mock examinations for timing practice. I attended the SRA crammer course which definitely helped with exam technique and further preparation required.
I scored in the top 10% allowing direct entry into Psychiatry Training and Emedica was part of this success."
Dr K S Psychiatry Direct Offer"Thank you very much for the SJT course! Despite a rather short notice application and studying with three young children (hence the original plan of a career break) and the postman spending 15mins of my online sitting desperately trying to get my attention by any means I passed with a
score of 618 (315 clinical and 303 PD). I wasn‘t so worried about the clinical exam but always find the PD very artificial and was very worried about getting a good score. I found your course helped as it gave me a more structured approach. I
scored 2nd in psychiatry and 5th in GP and have accepted the only run through CAMHS post in the country (Maudsley) and hopefully someone else will enjoy the London GP post that they will be offered today!"

Dr R G - Direct Offer"I got a direct offer for Psych today. I must say the Emedica SRA Qbank really helped a lot in preparing me for the actual exam. During the exam I felt like I was just taking one of the mocks. The SRA crammer course which I attended online was likewise invaluable, especially on how to tackle SJT Qs. Totally changed the way I look at SJTs, for the better I suppose!Kudos to you and your team!"
Dr R V - Psychiatry Direct Offer"I would like to thank you for your excellent presentation (I followed the webinar in Birmingham) on the MSRA; the Professional Dilemmas section was particularly helpful in demystifying the questions and giving us a framework for answering. Your workshop almost certainly played a part in helping me to secure a Direct Pathway to Offer for the GP training scheme. I am thrilled, and wanted to thank you for your very clear and informative presentation! I will definitely be recommending Emedica for any of my friends or colleagues revising for the exam."
Dr S R GP Direct Offer"I just wanted to thank you very much for all your help with the MSRA crammer course and online revision package. It really made a major difference for me, as I was successful in getting my first choice radiology training programme and I definitely wouldn’t have got it, if it wasn’t for the Emedica course. All the rapid review emails and your encouraging ‘keep going’ emails kept me going, in what can feel quite a lonely process. Your MSRA crammer course was invaluable, also, so a massive thank you from a very grateful (now) radiologist to be."
